Scary Movie

&
Scary Movie 2
2001
The first two movies of the Scary Movie franchise are pretty solid comedies with a smart eye for the genres that they spoof (in the first film it’s teen slashers, in the second it’s haunted house and possession movies). After that they devolved into total crap, so avoid the later installments. I particularly love the fact that the Wayans brothers were behind this wickedly smart and funny send-up of what is unfortunately often a lily-white genre.
Here’s one of my favorite scenes from either film, featuring my favorite character, Brenda (Regina Hall):
